The book or the movie, because having not read the books and only watching the CinemaSins for it, I gotta say, that dude cannot spank. Maybe it's the black in me, but that shit was barely a lovetap. Did they have to do multiple takes and she was too sore? I refuse to believe that was the best they could get. I don´t get it either, my exgirlfriends ass was red when wer were done and my back was full of scratches. Anyway we derail here.

It's a struggle. You learn to just not bother with some tags after a point. Doesn't help that I have rather...mundane tastes. To each his own! I don´t judge anyone, just don´t bring certain shit into my house.

Speaking of Toriyama, you watch Super?
Yes and unlike most bitches I consider it worth it since the comedy mostly is on point. The Anime dragged out, but that´s Toei to blame for.

It irritated me (Time manipulation is one of my favorite powers and I hate to see it in the hands of idiots). Then again I also like stealth/espionage powers, so Jacob...disappointed me when he pulled that stunt with Lucy.
The whole concept of Jacob is a paradox. While his concept isn´t mutually exclusive to an actual assasin,the popularized theme of assasins are stealth precision, swiftness and competence, which he had none of. Technically he could be considered an Assasin in the classical sense (a terrible one though), since the origin doesn´t specify on the method of the killing.
Anyway judging that Hiro didn´t intend to capture the reallife counterpart of an assasin but tried to rewrite the pop culture version he fucked up.
He was just a walking nuke, a terribly flawed one at that, with a self destruct button attached to him. In form of his weakness towards women. This guy would be fucked if he´d be in any Harem series, he´d die because of a heart attack.
Regarding Dimaria, didn´t care much for her. When her abilities got revealed I already knew she wouldn´t be of any value and get somehow oneshotted.
If you wanna actually read about competent usage of a time manipulation ability I´d recommend you Jojo´s part 6. It has one of the most creative ideas in Shounen abilities I´ve witnessed till today.
Ps:if you wanna further discuss stuff outside the chapter pm me, this is kinda turning into chatting and may get deleted.
